Week 15 of the 2025/26 season kicks off with an NFC South matchup between the Atlanta Falcons and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Kirk Cousins will start his fourth straight game after Michael Penix Jr’s season ended on IR after he tore his ACL. The Buccaneers are coming off a disappointing loss against another division rival, the 3-10 New Orleans Saints. Tampa Bay needs this win with the Carolina Panthers tied for the best record in the NFC South. Wide receivers Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan are returning from injured reserve tonight.

The Washington Commanders were on the practice fields again today as they prepare for a road game against the New York Giants on Sunday. There aren’t any new injuries today, and a few players returned to practice. CB Jonathan Jones (rib) and LB Bobby Wagner (knee) didn’t practice again today. Jones is dealing with a new injury, and hasn’t practiced since showing up on the injury report yesterday. Wagner didn’t practice the first two days last week, but returned Friday and played his usual 100% of snaps on defense. Expect him back at practice tomorrow, and on the field in...

Kliff Kingsbury talked to the media before Thursday’s practice. He was asked about Jayden Daniels’ development this season, and how it has been affected by his injuries, and injuries to other starters on offense. The team hasn’t been able to get into a rhythm due to the amount of injuries not allowing consistency in practice and games. He called this a unique year, as the team tried to play to their strengths from last season, but they were limited by several factors.
Kliff Kingsbury regrets a lot of things about the Commanders’ 31-0 loss to the Vikings last week. “Scoring...

Washington Commanders Coach Dan Quinn announced Wednesday that quarterback Jayden Daniels has been ruled out ahead of Sunday’s road game against the New York Giants. For the seventh time this season, Marcus Mariota will start in his place.
Daniels was knocked out of the Commanders’ loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday after getting blocked on an interception return and landing on his left elbow, which he dislocated against the Seattle Seahawks on Nov. 2.
“[There were] no structural setbacks,” Quinn...

Both teams approached the Week 14 match between the Commanders and Vikings badly in need of a get-right win. The mood on Hogs Haven was upbeat, with Jayden Daniels’ first start since Week 9 headlining a list of starters recently returning from injury. A week after taking the second-seed Denver Broncos to an overtime nail-biter, it might have felt like Washington had the advantage, even on the road.
That just goes to show that a 3-9 team on a seven-game losing streak can’t take any games for granted. Who knew?
With the 0-31 blowout loss to the previously struggling Minnesota...

Dan Quinn spoke to the media before Washington Commanders practice. He said that Jayden Daniels won’t play on Sunday when the team visits the New York Giants. He aggravated the left elbow injury that cause him to missed three games. He was chasing down a Vikings defender who had just intercepted him, when he was shoved to the ground, landing on his left side. Quinn said there are no structural setbacks, but the doctors advised him to sit this week out.

The Washington Commanders have placed another starter on injured reserve. Zach Ertz suffered a torn ACL in last week’s shutout loss, and will miss the final four games. He is a pending free agent, but at 35 years-old, could call it a career after a major injury late in his 13th season. Dan Quinn confirmed the injury on Monday, and the team has now made it official. Ertz joined the Commanders last year, and played in 33 games, including three in the playoffs last season.
Ertz has been the clear #1 TE since joining the team, but Washington will now...

The Commanders’ fan base is passionate and loyal beyond all comprehension to a franchise that, for three decades, did nothing but bring shame and embarrassment to the team, and to the region. A magical 2024 alleviated a lot of that pain and suffering. But, 2025 has been a dreadful sequel. “Jaws: The Revenge”- level awful.* If you rock the burgundy and gold, you have a right to be profoundly disappointed.
But. Some of y’all — not all, but...
